S 5467 United States Senate · 118th Congress

SANCTIONS in the West Bank Act

This bill codifies existing U.S. sanctions targeting individuals undermining peace and security in the West Bank, as defined by Executive Order 14115. It establishes a formal process for the President to terminate sanctions against specific individuals who have stopped the sanctioned activities and provide reliable assurances against future violations. The President must notify relevant congressional committees 15 days in advance (or within 3 business days in emergencies) before lifting sanctions, providing evidence that the person has ceased the prohibited conduct. The bill directly affects individuals previously sanctioned under the executive order, not governments or entities. It does not create new sanctions but formalizes the termination procedure for existing ones.
